Finding the right motor is one of the core
elements in the selection of dynamic drive components. Due to their
high starting torque maxon DC motors with or without brushes are
the perfect matches for highly dynamic servo applications. Once the
requirements of the application are specified and a general motion
control strategy is established, there are a few rules to be
respected to get the optimum motor. ■

AUSTIN -- Tuesday, Austinites showed their appreciation for Austin's music scene and musicians.
It was HAAM Benefit Day. The Health Alliance for Austin Musicians provides access to affordable health care to many Austin musicians.
Tuesday more than 230 bands performed across the city. Many local businesses are pledging five percent of the day's proceeds or are making cash donations to help.
"The music industry is about a $2 billion industry here in Austin and yet most musicians are earning about $16,000 a year," said HAAM Executive Director Carolyn Schwarz.
"Musicians will come here and feel like they can work, but if trouble comes up, they'll have resources that can help them out," said Rob Hooper, the drummer for Carolyn Wonderland.
Last year, $235,000 was raised from more than 200 participating businesses.

"I wanted these to coordinate with contact cards I had already ordered, and asked the design staff to alter the colors of the text, to de-emphasize my necessary, but seldom used first name. Imagine my surprise when I received a phone call (!) from the designer to discuss my needs! The note/thank you cards came in exactly as I had hoped, and I'm now about to order more as hostess gifts. The quality of the paper, and the print work is beyond reproach. As for those - and I've seen a few - who complained about the size of the product: it's noted in the description! If in doubt, cut a piece of paper to those dimensions in order to see what you're ordering :) Thank you Tiny Prints for superior quality and service. You have a customer for life!"
"I was pleasantly surprised by this product. The peonies on the top left were not as overpowering as I thought they were--there is plenty of space to write a sweet note."
"I love the orange against the white. It really pops. I made my name the same color and it looks great. Perfect for me, but now I'm thinking about gifts as well."
"These note cards are very attractive for those times when you want to acknowledge someone's thoughtfulness or to just say hi. It's my first purchase but won't be my last!"
"The simplicity of this card is what attracted me. The sea grass in a pale green and brown for a more masculine personalization. ordered the card as wedding gift for a gay couple. I was not disappointed."

Lessons from corporatized college: Even PhDs are being squeezed out of the middle class
Working. Poor. In our US of A, those words ought never be juxtaposed. The very concept of paying poverty wages in the richest nation in the history of the planet is an abomination--a mark of societal failure. Yet, not only have millions of our people been shoved into the abyss of the working poor, but our soulless corporate and political elites tell us to get used to it, for the Walmartization of work is our nation's future.

Kmart's results were "terrible," Balter said.
After writing positively about Sears ("There's Much More to Sears Than Meets the Eye," Aug. 13), we continue to pay close attention to the stock (SHLD). It rose from $51 to $67 following our story, but last week's mishap cut it to $48. We still believe it could be worth about twice that if Chairman Edward Lampert continues to sell and spin off the company's many assets skillfully, as he's done with its Sears Hometown properties. The retailer has 2,200 domestic Sears and Kmart stores, whose number will fall via closures, and building and lease sales. Sears also has a $3.3 billion credit facility to draw on if liquidity becomes a concern. Perhaps most importantly, Sears will keep stellar brands such as Kenmore, Craftsman, and DieHard, which will be the core of a more narrowly focused business.
Sears did beat Street estimates by cutting operating costs and posting gains in apparel and appliances.
Cliff Orr, an analyst at Privet Fund, an Atlanta hedge fund, says that "nothing announced is inconsistent with a positive net-asset-value view of the company." To be sure, the stock will stay volatile as Sears restructures, but Orr believes it's worth $100. There is more to Sears.

The cruise line recently raised its 2012 earnings guidance by 15 cents a share, to $1.85-$1.95, when it reported third-quarter results.

She recently boosted her PMV estimate to $47, and has a stock-price target of $38. But she has trimmed 20% of her position, as the European economy remains soft and fiscal-cliff worries damp consumer-spending predictions in the U.S.

It was not exactly the Christmas bonus he may have been hoping for. Dan Metcalf, a web journalist and online film critic who served as executive producer of the KTVX/ABC 4 website, got his pink slip today.
Metcalf said he was one of several station employees who were pulled into an office and told their positions were eliminated. He said employees had been nervous ever since Nexstar purchased the station "a couple of months ago." Nexstar is a publicly traded broadcasting company based in Texas that owns 50 TV stations nationwide, including KTVX (ABC 4) and KUCW (CW30).
"It's shocking to think they're going to run the station without a webmaster," Metcalf says, "but there's not a soul left who can do it."
Rumors as to what changes, if any, were made to the roster of reporters and anchors have not yet been confirmed, although senior reporter Chris Vanocur's Twitter account is no longer affiliated with KTVX/ABC4. Calls to ABC 4 news director Larry Perret were not immediately returned.
In the meantime, a "blindsided" Metcalf is simply trying to hold it together for his family. His tweet this afternoon said: "Kudos to
@ktvx (ABC 4), who laid off several people 7 days before Christmas - including me."
Totally agreed!
I am really confused about what is happening at your station. I just get used to anchors and then they are gone!! What happened to Dan plante and Ann sterling. ???? People do want to know!! I do like glen Willey and Emily Clark!! Sometimes you guys change way too often!! It's annoying! Thank you , Claudia kirby

Warm Farro & Mustard Green Salad with Maple Roasted Acorn Squash, Feta & Walnuts
Author Notes: I have for you yet another warm and satisfying winter dish. This is a perfect balance of savory, salty and sweet. This salad was a pleasant surprise. You could eat this as a meal or serve as a side.
- Nicole Franzen
Serves 4-6
- 2 cups of farro
- 1 bunch of mustard greens
- 1 acorn squash
- feta cheese
- walnuts
- maple syrup
- 1 lemon
- bay leaf
- sea salt and pepper
- vegetable oil
- olive oil
- Feel free to soak farro hours before cooking. It will speed up the cooking process. I have researched other farro recipes, many say farro cooks in 20 minutes. I am not sure if they have a fast cooking farro or what, but every time I cook farro it takes 45-hour. Drain farro from the water it was soaking in and place into a saucepan. Cover in water to the top, add a sprinkle of salt and a bay leaf. Bring to a boil and cover, turn down heat to medium and simmer. Cook until tender about 45 minutes, check on it through out the process, add more water if needed.
- Meanwhile preheat oven to 375 degrees. Slice acorn squash in half, remove any seeds and guts. Slice into quarter of an inch slices and place on a sheet pan. Add 2 tablespoons of maple syrup and a drizzle of vegetable oil. Toss well and season with salt and pepper. Place in the oven and bake until tender and lightly browned about 30-45 minutes. Wash a bunch of mustard greens and tear into bite size pieces. Place into a large bowl. When farro is done, drain and allow to cool slightly. Not completely because you want to put the warm farro in with the mustard greens to wilt them.
- For the dressing take the juice of lemon and whisk in olive oil. I do a half acid, half oil ratio with this. Only because you want the citrus to have a chance in competing with the richness of the farro and the greens. Season the dressing with salt and pepper. Add dressing to farro and mustard greens, toss well. Taste and adjust to preference. Serve farro salad with the roasted acorn squash, feta cheese and toasted walnuts on top. Nom!

This was delicious! I subbed sliced almonds (for the walnuts) and baby chard (for the mustard greens) since that is what I had on hand, and it was great. But I'm sure the added punch from the mustard greens is probably pretty wonderful and will give that a go in the future. Thanks for sharing!

Intentional Eye Candy: Julianne Hough
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed or follow us on Facebook. Thanks for visiting!
Anytime you (you as in female) cause a member of the sporting world to leave his hot fiancée because of your seductive dancing style, you are automatically entered into the Intentional Eye Candy consideration queue. With that, allow me to introduce Julianne Hough, dance partner of Dancing with the Stars winner Helio Castroneves.
Apparently, Julianne's allure was so strong that Castroneves announced he was leaving his fiancée Aliette Vazquez, another candidate for IEC award, shortly after the winner was announced. Perhaps we should have seen this coming. Before the competition was televised, Hough announced she was postponing her nuptials with fellow dancer, Zach Wilson.
Add to this the rumors of Hough and Castroneves' friendly attitude towards each other and you have yourself the makings of a pretty good soap opera storyline. Anyway, enough of that. On with the pics of Julianne and all her blond hottie glory. Congratulations Julianne, you made reading about DWTS and open-wheel racing a lot more fun this week. Enjoy:

Top-ranked Alabama (8-0) had an open date to prepare for Saturday's marquee matchup with No. 11 LSU. There's debate on whether that was a good thing.
Seventh-ranked Auburn (8-1) handled tumbling Arkansas 35-17 on the road and looks to do the same Saturday at tumbling Tennessee.
Jacksonville State (7-2) thumped winless Austin Peay 42-10 in an Ohio Valley Conference tuneup for Saturday's home opportunity against Eastern Kentucky.
Alabama: Open-date debate
Who remembers when the number of opponents taking an open date before playing Alabama was a controversy?
LSU and Alabama both had open dates before this week's showdown in T-town, and the question becomes whether it was a good thing.
If Alabama coach Nick Saban had his preference this past week, the Crimson Tide would have played. Alabama clearly was rounding back into championship form, so the open date pressed pause on positive momentum.
Then again, Saban had two weeks to prepare for one of the biggest games on Alabama's schedule. That's almost always a good thing.
LSU needed an open date after suffering the upset at Ole Miss on Oct. 19, and the Tigers essentially got two, including their soft landing against Furman on Oct. 26. LSU will have had three weeks to think about the game that could make its season after losses to Ole Miss and Georgia.
Then again, will three weeks be enough for LSU's defense, not one of the Tigers' best in recent years, to find a way to stop an Alabama offense that's hitting on all cylinders?
Four might not be enough, considering that LSU ranks 50th in the country against the run.
Auburn: Getting to 10 … more?
The path to double-digit victories keeps looking less treacherous for Auburn (8-1, 4-1 SEC).
Remember two weeks ago, when this week's game at Tennessee looked more perilous? Tennessee had just pushed Georgia to overtime and upset South Carolina.
The Vols' momentum has clearly stopped. They lost 45-10 at Alabama on Oct. 26 then 31-3 to Missouri on Saturday, so Auburn's five-game winning streak looks more likely to grow at Knoxville on Saturday.
That would make nine victories and leave Auburn, which went 3-9 a year ago, needing to win one game between Georgia, Alabama and a bowl opponent to make it 10.
Georgia got running back Todd Gurley back for the first time in a month Saturday, and he ran for 100 yards in a victory over Florida. Still, the unranked Bulldogs have to come to Jordan-Hare Stadium to play an Auburn team now ranked in the top 10 in every major poll.
Top-ranked Alabama will be favored but still has to come to Jordan-Hare. If the Iron Bowl winds up being a showdown between unbeaten Alabama and one-loss Auburn for the SEC West Division title, expect an atmosphere a la 1989.
Should Auburn somehow come through these final three regular-season games without a loss, the Tigers will have the chance to finish with 13 victories.
Finishing with double-digit victories would be an amazing accomplishment, considering where the Tigers were this time a year ago.
JSU: Big opportunity
Here comes that team again, and Eastern Kentucky brings an opportunity for JSU at home.
The Gamecocks can vanquish demons in this series, most of all that 24-point lead they blew in the final seven minutes two years ago, the last time EKU came to JSU Stadium.
A victory can also all but assure JSU a nine-win season in Bill Clark's first season as head coach.
The Gamecocks (7-2, 3-2 OVC) held serve against winless Austin Peay on Saturday. They should beat Southeast Missouri at home in the regular-season finale.
To get to nine victories, JSU, picked fourth in the OVC in preseason, needs to beat one of two teams picked ahead of it in the OVC. It's hard to see that happening at second-ranked and preseason OVC favorite Eastern Illinois (8-1) in two weeks, so second pick EKU (6-3) at home is the best chance.
That's not to say that it's a great chance. EKU rolled to a 44-0 rout of No. 23 Tennessee State on Saturday, and TSU handled JSU 31-15 at JSU this season.
So beating EKU would give JSU an upset to offset the loss to Murray State that shouldn't have happened.

AAW - Defining Moment 2013
Knight Wagner vs Prince Mustafa Ali
The match starts off with a dropkock by Ali and a twisting corkscrew over the top. He conects with chops, until Wagner throws him into the ring post and a upricut. A backslide for Prince gets two and a Russian leg sweep by Wagner and a runing knee by Wagner. Prince hits another drokick and hits a michinoko
Hello one and all. First, I want to thank you for taking a second to read my blog. Next, for anyone who is familiar with this series, I normally do it in the format of the good, the bad, and the indifferent, and then the overall thoughts. That is indeed how this will be. So, this is the first Raw after Survivor Series. I ended up purchasing Survivor Series last night, and I don't know if it was because

Way back when I was a lad, each title meant something special and individual in it's own right. Granted, there were fewer, but each one represented a certain tier and level of accomplishment and herein I think, lies the answer.
WWE needs to reestablish a level of ranking where certain guys are only involved in one scene at a time. For instance, if you are in a tag team, you should rarely,

This isn't top 10 moments or matches? This is top 10 shoulda wins, which is a concept I created to talk about who should have won at this big event. It was made more to talk about the major ppvs aka the big 4 mainly because I've already discussed best and worst both in moments and matches. So what is shoulda wins? Basically it is, a performer should have won this particular match, but they didn't.
What is up one and all? I hope everyone is doing well, and is looking forward to Thanksgiving and Black Friday. I know I am. Before we get there though, we have a stop at Survivor Series. One of the big four PPV's of the year for the WWE. In this blog, i am going to give my opinion on each match that has been announced for the card, and who I think will win. To start with, I think this will roughly

Hello fellow bloggers and blog readers, I'm Dennis and today I'm going to be writing a duel blog with a seasoned blogger here on EWrestlingNews, Bearkg88. This is going to be a continuation of our blog series, even though we haven't had a blog in quite some time. Today we are going to discuss five topics that are prevalent in today's

First things first, this is my first blog. So please go easy. Also, my apologies if it's too long. I (like all of us) put a lot of thought every year into what would be my dream card for WrestleMania. Please pay particular attention to the word dream in that sentence; I know a lot of what follows here is highly unlikely to happen in New Orleans. But it's the pay-per-view I would want

Stop the Belo Monte Monster Dam!
Saturday 20 and Monday 22 August are International Days of Action to defend the Brazilian Amazon. Several demonstrations are taking place around the world. Find out how you can get involved.
- The government approved construction of the disastrous Belo Monte Dam, allowing heavy machinery to break ground on the banks of the Xingu River.
- The Brazilian Congress is on the verge of approving a major rollback of the Brazilian Forestry Code, already causing a huge spike in deforestation.
- Leading forest guardians have been victims of murder and intimidation.
This is one of the defining environmental struggles of our times; the assault on the Amazon must stop!
We, the international community, need to stand in solidarity with the growing numbers of Brazilians calling for environmental sanity and respect for human rights in the Amazon. Together, we can make a difference.
You can help protect the Amazon!
Saturday 20 August will be massive day of action in at least 22 Brazilian cities. Antonia Melo, a key leader of the movement to stop the Belo Monte Dam, has asked people to join her by organising protests around the world on Monday August 22 in front of their local Brazilian Embassy or Consulate.

Wherever limestone and dolomite are found underground, sinkholes are to be expected, said Ed Osborne, director of the Geological Investigations office at the Geological Survey of Alabama in Tuscaloosa.
"And limestone and dolomite are very common in north Alabama," Osborne said.
Water eats away at both limestone and dolomite which can create caves that weaken the ground above and can lead to sinkholes, explained Miriam Hill, professor of geography and geographic information systems at Jacksonville State University.
The depressions can occur naturally and during construction, Osborne said.
It cost the city more than $1 million to repair the sinkhole, said Oxford finance director Alton Craft, with another $2.3 million spent to install sewer and water lines and prepare the site for future retail development.
Add those figures to the $7.5 million spent last year for site preparation prior to construction of Publix and the city will have spent around $10.7 million on the project.
City officials note a study, however, which estimates the revenue from sales taxes and other fees will give Oxford a return on that investment in a little more than two years.
More retail, restaurant and business outlets are expected to open atop the spot where the sinkhole once was, but contracts with those businesses have not been signed, said Eric Brewer of WR Oxford, the company developing Oxford Commons.
Brewer declined to name those businesses until the contracts have been completed.
"We're working on it," Brewer said.
Oxford's sinkhole is one of many that have occurred in Calhoun County in recent years, and evidence points to more forming in the future.
The Alabama Department of Transportation was to begin this week a $9.4 million repair of a sinkhole that formed beside Alabama 21 at mile marker 225.
In May, an 80-foot sinkhole was discovered at the intersection of Weaver Road and Glade Road in Anniston. City workers believe heavy rains washed away dirt and a deteriorated drainage pipe, which caused the underground hole.
A sinkhole was discovered in 2009 at the site of a proposed Sam's Club, just across Leon Smith Parkway from Oxford Commons.
In 2005, a sinkhole large enough to drive a bus into formed at the intersection of U.S. 78 West and Mountain Crest Avenue, about 3 miles from downtown Oxford.
Homeowners in a DeArmanville subdivision off of Buckalew Bridge Road discovered three sinkholes in their neighborhood in 1998.
A map from the Geological Survey of Alabama shows at least 20 sinkholes formed across Calhoun County between 1958 and 1986, five of which occurred in the Oxford, Hobson City and Bynum areas.
North Alabama is littered with them, with several thousand sinkholes recorded in Lawrence, Morgan, Madison, Jackson, Marshall, Limestone and Colbert counties, according to those maps.
The death of a man after a sinkhole formed under the bedroom of his Seffner, Fla., home in March drew worldwide attention.
Florida's terrain — covered with underground caves, streams and drainage systems — is ripe for sinkholes, Osborne explained.
One of the most famous sinkholes in the U.S. occurred in Winter Park, Fla., in 1981, when a 350-foot sinkhole swallowed a home, a laundry, a print shop, part of the city's swimming pool and five Porsche sports cars from a garage.
The largest sinkhole in Alabama occurred in Shelby County in December 1972. Called the "Golly Hole," it's about 325 feet wide and 120 feet deep.
But it's not clear if there are more sinkholes occurring today than in years past, explained Osborne.
He suspected he'd be fielding calls from reporters asking about sinkholes after a 60-foot wide sinkhole on Monday swallowed part of a condominium in Clermont, Fla., Osborne said.
"My guess is that we're just paying more attention to them," Osborne said.

wondering if anyone can help me decide.
are there any advantages or disadvantages in installing either SnowOSX (like iAtkios, Ideneb, Kalyway....) or Retail Snow Leopard (with a USB thumb drive and a pre-existing working Leopard OS)? for e.g. do both ways allow updates without issues? does one method has better driver (kexts) supports for hardwares than the other? is one method more stable than the other? is one method much simpler than the other?.......etc!
Please get back to me because I am very interested to find out before I decide.
thank you.

Late rally not enough to lead OHS past West Point
A chance to climb back atop the Region 1-5A standings for the Oxford Chargers was ultimately dashed by the West Point Green Wave on Friday night at McAllester Field. Despite a late second-half surge on offense led by quarterback Guy Cameron Billups, the Chargers fell to the Green Wave 22-20.
Oxford (4-3 overall, 1-2 in region play) totaled 392 yards against a strong West Point defense, but in the end it was Green Wave quarterback Justin Cox and his offensive mates that were able to find a way to pull out the win that kept them atop the region standings. (October 11, 2010, Page 1B)

Retired Beloit schools official named Greenfield interim business manager
Ronald Nortier, who retired from the Beloit School District in 2009 as executive director of operations, was named the interim director of business services by the Greenfield School Board on Monday.
Nortier was chosen from a field of nine candidates, two of whom were interviewed. He will serve until the School Board appoints a permanent replacement for Kristin Kollath, who has accepted a position with the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. The board expects to name a successor after it chooses a new superintendent.
Meanwhile, Nortier comes to the Greenfield schools with 36 years of experience in public education. He worked for the Beloit School District from 1985 until he retired in 2009.
Police called when man yells at neighbor about his 'contaminated' water
Greenfield police were called after a resident reported her upstairs neighbor was yelling, stating she "contaminated" his water and blaming her for mold issue April 16.
According to the Greenfield police report:
A resident in the 4600 block of South Woodland Drive called police to report her upstairs neighbor was yelling down through the ceiling at her. She said the neighbor was stating that she "contaminated" his water and was blaming her for a mold issue in his home about 2:35 a.m. April 16.
An officer contacted the man, who said he had a moisture and mold problem that was intentionally caused by his neighbor.
The officer told the man to contact his condo association to determine the source of the problem and to stop yelling at his neighbor.
Two suspects sought in Greenfield gas station burglary
Greenfield police are searching for two suspects who stole multiple cartons of cigarettes during a gas station burglary earlier this month.
According to the police report:
Two unknown males broke into Speedway, 3390 W. Loomis Road, by prying open a door on the northeast side of the business.
Once inside, the suspects filled a round garbage can with 30 to 50 cartons of Newport and Marlboro cigarettes and an unknown number of cigars. The suspects then left the business and threw the can over a fence leading to an alley, where a car was waiting for them.
The suspects were inside the business for only about 20 seconds, according to the police.» Read Full Article
Man charged with ninth drunken driving offense after road rage incident
Dean T. Schaefer, 50, of Milwaukee was charged in Milwaukee County Circuit Court Friday, April 18, with ninth offense operating while intoxicated after a road rage incident the previous night in Greenfield.

The driver of the car reported that Shaefer had gotten out of his truck at a red light and approached him allegedly yelling and pounding his fist.

License of mobile home park in West Allis could roll away
West Allis has started proceedings to revoke the license for Mobile Estates Mobile Home Park, 10401 W. Greenfield Ave., with 45 mobile homes because repairs and the cleanup ordered in December are still not done, officials said.
The Common Council License and Health Committee decided Tuesday to start the process after park operator Thaddues Derynda did not come in to discuss the list of deficiencies he was supposed to fix.
Derynda was pursuing a license for the park to operate when the committee told he to improve the park. He failed to appear before the committee about the alleged problems.
The revocation procedure will involve a formal hearing, and a date has not been set.
For the last three years, ordered repairs have not been done on time at the mobile home park, Atkinson said. The park operated with no current license for the years 2010-11, 2011-12 and 2012-13 while the city worked with Derynda on the list of deficiencies for those years, Ted Atkinson, director of building inspection, said. Derynda has missed several other meetings during that time, Atkinson said. The wrangle even involved taking Derynda to municipal court.» Read Full Article
'Mount Stallis' rises in West Allis
Everybody thought the huge pile of dirt that arose where Interstate 894 crosses Greenfield Avenue in West Allis would go away as soon as the Zoo Interchange work was finished.
But West Allis officials just learned that the pile that has been dubbed Mount Stallis by some neighbors is here to stay. It's dirt dug up in the Zoo Interchange project and the Wisconsin Department of Transportation's chunk of land next to the freeway at Greenfield Avenue was a handy place to put it.
Stallis is the colloquial term residents have created as a shortened nickname for West Allis.
The DOT plans to plant grass on the hill and seems to be agreeable to planting some large trees to soften the heap's visual impact, Alderman Michael May reported to fellow aldermen Tuesday. The DOT also would probably be agreeable to turning Mount Stallis over to the city, but officials aren't that interested, knowing how tricky it will be to mow a hill that steep.
But faced with the giant sow's ear, city officials are trying to be resilient by looking into how they might turn it into a silk purse. They're thinking of mounting unique and even artistic solar panels on the mini-mount. Some of the newer solar panels can be quite striking and could make the hill into something unique and interesting, John Stibal, development director, suggested. The Milwaukee County Zoo has a sunflower-shaped solar panel on its grounds, already.» Read Full Article
West Allis considers fund to help homeowners repair sewer laterals
To help keep rainwater from overwhelming sewage treatment facilities resulting in dumping diluted sewage into lakes and rivers, West Allis officials are thinking of setting up a fund to help homeowners afford to fix leaky sewer laterals that let the rainwater in.
Sewer laterals take waste water from homes to sanitary sewers in the streets that go to wastewater treatment facilities.
At the same time sewer laterals age and become increasingly leaky, especially in older sections of the city, West Allis is under an enforcement ruling to reduce the amount of rainwater getting into its sanitary sewers.
So, the proposal is for all single-family, duplex and three-family homeowners to chip in $40 annually to the fund. If their laterals need relining to make them watertight, they would only pay $1,500 instead of the estimated $5,500 it would cost to have the work done privately, officials said.
But if it's an emergency repair, the tab would be $3,000 with the fund's help, compared with an estimated $12,000 if the lateral is in the street and $4,000 if the lateral is in the yard.» Read Full Article
Police warn man after he enters woman's vehicle, tries to kiss her
Police warned a man who entered a woman's vehicle and tried to kiss her and ask her to go out for a drink about 9 p.m. April 12.
According to the Greenfield police report:
A customer at Speedway, 6000 W. Layton Ave., called police to report an unknown male came inside her vehicle, grabbed her face and tried to kiss her, and then asked her to go out for a drink with him at about 9 p.m. April 12.
Police contacted the man, who was sitting inside a vehicle at the business.
The woman declined to press charges, but wanted him warned. Police told the man the woman was not interested and to leave her alone.
Corey Stingley case featured in new documentary
The case of Corey Stingley, a West Allis teen who died after he was held down by three adult customers at a convenience store where he had tried to shoplift alcohol, is featured in a new documentary.
Stingley's story will the first in a new series of 25 minute videos called Crime and Punishment on VICE News.com.
Stingley, 16, died after the encounter at VJ's Food Mart, 9206 W. Schlinger Ave., West Allis, on Dec. 14, 2012. More than a year later, after extended reviews and a secret John Doe investigation, District Attorney John Chisholm announced no charges would be filed, against any of the three men arrested after the incident.
The decision prompted protests that it was the result of a racial bias. Stingley was African-American; the customers are white.
VICE News released a short trailer for the Stingley episode on Thursday, and made the full length version of "The Death of Corey Stingley" available Friday.» Read Full Article

A resident called police to report that an unknown female went to her neighbor's residence and tried to start clothing on fire March 31.
According to the Greenfield police report:
The resident called police when the female, age not released, went to her neighbor's yard in the 5900 block of South Honey Creek Parkway, threw clothing on the grass, sprayed it with lighter fluid and tried to start them on fire about 5:30 p.m. March 31.

West Allis-West Milwaukee receives $30,000 grant for nutrition efforts
The West Allis-West Milwaukee school district's recreation and community services department has received a $30,000 grant to support out-of-school nutrition programs, the district said Monday.
The grant is part of a larger $2.3 million grant from the Walmart Foundation to the National Recreation and Park Association that will help fund programs in 50 park and recreation agencies.
It will provide additional healthy meals to low-income students through the Summer Food Service Program and the Child and Adult Care Food Program, according to a release from the district. It will also fund programs that teach students about healthy eating and help the district implement nutrition and physical activity standards.
The national grant will support the National Recreation and Park Association's campaign to implement nutrition and physical activity standards in 2,000 park and recreation sites over the next five years.
Fewer than 3 million children participate in the Summer Food Service Program, according to a 2010 report on hunger by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, though 19.5 million children receive free or reduced meals during the school year.» Read Full Article
Greenfield troupe invited to theater festival in Scotland
The Greenfield High School Drama group has been chosen to perform at the American High School Theatre Festival in Edinburgh, Scotland, in 2015.
The school received three nominations after last fall's production of "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat."
Once nominated by a state, regional or national theater association, the director fills out application paperwork and submits up to 10 pages of supporting materials to a board of advisers. The board ranks the applications based on most recent bodies of work, honors and awards, technical ability, community involvement, philosophies, recommendations and overall dramatic excellence.
Top-ranking applicants are invited to perform in the festival.
Now comes the difficult work of raising more than $6,000 per student for the trip.

2 Greenfield rental managers accused of first-month-free scam
Two women who worked as managers of a Greenfield apartment complex are facing dozens of felony charges related to accusations they embezzled more than $100,000 in cash rent and other payments from tenants, a criminal complaint says.
Kim M. Pinnow-Johnson, 49, of Oshkosh and Kimberly L. Tokar, 32, of Greendale are each charged with 34 felonies related to forgery and theft.
Tokar is due in court for a preliminary hearing on Monday. Pinnow-Johnson was booked into Milwaukee County jail on Monday, and online court records did not immediately show when she was due in court.
The women ran the local rental office for Heritage Village Apartments and are accused of falsifying corporate documents and forging tenants' signatures to steal cash rental payments, according to the criminal complaint.
The scheme entailed the women demanding that tenants pay their first month of rent in cash, then forging the tenants' names on a document detailing a free first-month's rent and pocketing the cash, police said in court documents. The woman are accused of embezzling at least $114,877.74 from September 2011 through August 2012.» Read Full Article

Did you mean?Try your search again
Thinking of going on the Mountain Riders Sunrise Bike Tour, the day after we arrive, figure early pick-up (ie 2-3am)won't be too hard as we haven't adjusted to island time change. Anyways, reviews seem good and bad. We have three kids, aged 16, 14 and 11. Do you feel they will be okay on this tour? Will bikes be the appropriate size for them? Any opinions or helpful tips greatly appreciated. Thxs!!!
My wife and I plus our 23 and 18 year old sons will be in Kihei for holidays. Any suggestions on what (or not) to see and do? The same for restaurants? Thanks
I have read it is a good idea to drive straight to the pools, then do the road in reverse. I don't know if this is a stupid question, but will I still be able to use the Road to Hana CD? Or will it be complicated, I don't want to miss anything.

It's a "Full House" family reunion!
Bob Saget had an off-screen reunion with his grown up television daughters, Candace Cameron Bure and Jodie Sweetin, at the Cool Comedy Cuisine event in Beverly Hills earlier this week. The funnyman was on-hand to host the event which benefited the Schleroderma Research Foundation.
While the red carpet reunion was a sweet on-screen family moment, don't expect to see a real on-screen reunion anytime soon. Saget told US Weekly, "We hang out sometimes. I get to see them when we can. We all love each other. I just don't think [a "Full House" reunion"] that's... it's kind of low on the possibilities."
With a "Full House" reunion out of the cards, there are still plenty of other shows from the 1990s that we would love to see reunited. Here are some of the casts we would like to see reunited on-screen:
"Blossom": Whoa! Blossom Russo and her famous funky hats hit the airwaves in 1991. Through five seasons, fans of the show got to watch the teen and her family manage life without mom after the rarely seen matrimonial figure took off to pursue her own career goals. Left to pick up the pieces were Blossom's musician dad Nick, recovering alcoholic brother Anthony, spacy brother Joey and fast-talking best friend Six. While a grown up version of the show could be fun, it's doubtful that the show's star Mayim Bialik would want to take a break from her role as Amy Farrah Fowler on the "The Big Bang Theory."
"The Fresh Prince of Bel Air": Prior to becoming a Hollywood leading man, Will Smith ruled the airwaves from his mansion in Bel Air. After solidifying his career as a rapper, the Fresh Prince decided to make the jump to the small screen as a fictionalized version of his rap persona. In the show, Smith starred as a street-smart teenager from West Philadelphia who heads to the West Coast to move in with his affluent aunt and until in their plush Bel Air mansion. Over six seasons, we got to watch him transition from a street smart kid to a savvy college student ready to head out into the grown-up world. While it would appear that the majority of the Banks family would be available for an on-screen reunion, it is highly doubtful that Will Smith have time with his upcoming action film, "After Earth," set to hit theaters later this month.
"Boy Meets World": For seven seasons, the sitcom followed the daily activities of Cory Matthews as he developed from a young boy to a mature married man. Thankfully for fans of the 1990s family sitcoms, we will actually get a chance to see the cast reunited on screen. The Disney Channel has started work on a spin-off series titled "Girl Meets World," which features the daughter of Cory and his high-school sweetheart Topanga as she faces the challenges of middle school. Original series stars Ben Savage and Danielle Fishel will return to their roles as Cory and Topanga in the new series.

A study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association found that overweight adults who followed a program of modest caloric restriction achieved significant reductions in body fat mass in just six months, while improving the ability of cells to normally utilize insulin, i.e., improving sensitivity to insulin.80-82
Hunger is the factor that often precludes most people from even considering a low-calorie diet. Pinolenic acid, from the Korean Pine Nut, stimulates the release of two of the body's most powerful hunger-suppressing hormones: CCK (cholecystokinin) and GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1).83 This sends a feeling of satiety or "fullness" to the brain, decreasing the desire to eat and helping to control excessive calorie intake. People taking this oil had an increase in the satiety hormones CCK and GLP-1 in the bloodstream and a 36% reduced desire to eat.83
This supplement should be taken in conjunction with a healthy diet and regular exercise program. Results may vary.

Helped me stop night time eating
By Lazell
from Hayward, CA
About Me Health Conscious
I've been using Natural Appetite Control for several years now. Originally, taking it at about 11AM everyday, I found I didn't get hungry for lunch until about 3PM. I'd actually forget to eat. Then at night, I take it before bed, and I no longer wake up in the middle of the night with a gnawing in my stomach. I used to always have to get up and eat, which helped neither my efforts to lose weight, acid reflux problems nor quality of sleep. I now recognize that the acid reflux caused the (fake) hunger pangs. I haven't had a problem keeping my weight down to about where I was in High School since (and I'm 70 now). I never let myself run low on this product! It's one of the main reasons I keep my LEF membership active.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
good for in between meal hunger
By Aging Gratefully
from Memphis, TN
I find these most effective for the in between meal urge to snack - particularly between lunch and dinner - when will-power is at its weakest. This does reduce hunger, but some people will need to break the "habit" of an afternoon snack as well.

It works!
By Clear Joy
from Wadsworth, Ohio
About Me Health Conscious, Medical Professional
This is an effective appetite suppressant, that is not a stimulant. I use it to bridge the time between when I get hungry, with nothing good to eat available, until I can get a nutritious snack or meal.

Though these pills are large, I prefer that to the large number that would be necessary to otherwise equal the necessary dose. Just don't try to give them to children unless you plan to puncture them to give as a liquid. The taste is bland and inoffensive. The special ingredients in the formula are unavailable elsewhere. In combination with other sensible measures such as watching the glycemic index of my meals, I have lost about a pound a week without the usual nagging hunger. They seem to work better than hoodia for me. I am grateful and I look forward to receiving my next order with free shipping and handling.

Comments On Nov 22, 2011:I used this tire on my XT350 Dual sport and it has been an excellent tire. Rides and handles perfect on pavement and as an A class harescrambler - this tire has had no problem keeping me up on two in the sandy South Jersey woods
